/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

The beard did me in this time.

This is perfection. 5/7, no notes.

It continues to confound me, the shit posts that are esoteric as fuck and involve less effort have a tendency to do better. Not always, but more often that not, the more nuanced and detail oriented memes I throw together just kinda flounder. Eh, go figure.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

In that case, I think I'll clean up with this one...

But no, I'll let you take this one forward.

Just remember to add a teensy bit more jpeg. And then a little bit nore... and then a button load. Then it will be perfect! 😃😁

Edit: to clarify, that was meant as the metric unit otherwise known as "butt" (as in short for buttocks) + "ton". Clarification is important sometimes, for proper communication of language. 🤪

My desire for a crisp image has occasionally been to my detriment. I like when it can fill the screen. One of my earliest Trek memes was an Arrested Development crossover that looks like it was made on a potato.

Been avoiding that ever since.

Appreciate the meme.

One of my favorite bits of trivia: a butt, or buttload, is an actual unit of volume regarding spirits, typically wine or beer.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

Omg that is beautiful - the buttload is 108 gallons, with no other measurement unit exceeding it -> it is the ultimate amount of beer!:-)

I get it. I spent hours on some edits that got almost no attention.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

We're of a rare sort. And once more...

May the Koala be with you.

I just got a promotion to Commander! The blue shirt was getting worn anyway.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago

This is good fever dream material. 8/10.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago

I can hear this meme

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Space Ghost; "Moltar, eject the warp core!"
Moltar: "We don't have a warp core."
Space Ghost: "Good work!"

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

I'm not mean, YOU'RE mean!

Is that sweet baby boy Griffin McElroy?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

You know it ❤️

Space ghost coast to coast was a fever dream from the early 2000s? Probably a bit of a wild ride if you go down that rabbit hole now

Once you get used to the format in a couple episodes, it’s a really unique capture of peak adult swim of its time. Weird Al’s appearance is a treat.

I liked it better when it morphed into cartoon planet, but I will never look at sea monkeys the same again, lemme tell ya.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago

I get that things have gotten a bit convoluted at TenForward of late. We like our sporadic fixations on one concept or another. Somewhere further down is a post with a general explanation of these shenanigans. In the meantime, just enjoy the ride.

Maybe it's tomorrow, maybe it's today.

Fuck the marvel multiverse, the loop multiverse is the real king.

Perfect capture of Brak
